    Hi chaps,
    I'm not happy with the offertory I wrote but the Communion I think adds a bit of a zest and can be used with the chant.
    You can use it interspersed between the verses like Palestrina responses.
    I would do it this way:
    Polyphonic Introibo
    Verse
    Introibo chant
    Verse
    Polyphonic Introibo (quietly)
    Gloria
    Polyphonic Introibo (LOUD)

    The offertory is clunky but should just be done as written.
    GB,
    Jes

    jes, nice work here. I loaded the tunes and may find a fitting use with our women's Compline Quire. I see you have some 'Lady basses" also on the bottom part.

    Thanks Jefe,
    Yes, I generally have a large choral range and small solo singing vocal range.
    Because of this I sing the bass lines in choral rep and do whistle tones when doing solo rep.
    I have a few more motets to come if you'd like. Sweet sacrament divine is one I worked on which could be used in novus ordo services. The Goretti chorale recently sang this at adoration in the city of Melbourne.
